Specification
Q: Unable to see a second session reading from a CD-ROM/DVD-ROM drive.
Eject the CD/DVD and re-load it.
Refresh the screen. Select the My Computer icon in Windows Explorer and press F5.
Make sure if your CD-ROM/DVD-ROM drive reads CD-RW/DVD±RW/±R discs. CD-RW/
DVD±RW/±R discs can only be used in CD-R/RW, DVD Dual or newer MultiRead
CD-ROM/DVD-ROM.
See if the CD-ROM, CD-R/RW, DVD-ROM or other DVD Dual drives can read the CD/
DVD ± RW/ ± R discs properly. If so, then the problem is probably with the
CD-ROM/DVD-ROM drive. Contact the manufacturer of the drive for updated drivers or
patch files.
Q: Applications cannot locate the DVD in 16x DVD Dual drive.
Some programs only locate the first logical drive letter assigned to a DVD-ROM or a 16x
DVD Dual drive. For example, if your DVD-ROM drive is assigned drive D: and 16x DVD
Dual is assigned drive E:, the program locates drive D: only and will not locate drive E:.
Thus you need to reassign drive letters to both your DVD-ROM and 16x DVD Dual drives
in case you need to run the program in 16x DVD Dual.
Windows ME/98: right-click My Computer icon. Click Properties item, open Device
Manager and double-click CD-ROM drive, then click Setting tab. Under Reserved drive
letters, select the drive letter after the existing letter (for both start and end drive letter) and
click OK. Then double-click 16x DVD Dual icon, then click Setting tab. Under Reserved
drive letters, select the drive letter before current one and click OK.
Windows NT: click on Start | Programs | Administrative Tolls (common). Choose Disk
Administrator. Right-click on the drive letter you would like to change. Select Assign Drive
Letter and change the drive letter accordingly.
The above are only GENERAL rules that do not necessarily apply to any combination of 16x DVD
Dual drives, HDD and motherboards. A few trials on different configurations before recording are
recommended. Also, try out different DVD±RW/±R media before you proceed to make volumes
duplication as you may figure out which brand of CD-R/-RW/DVD±RW/±R media originates
smoother recording and easier access. As long as you find the best CD/DVD recording way, stick
to it.
